The actions of a cat stealing the neighbor's puppies have left both the owner and netizens in stitches. It's often said that maternal love is natural, but when it comes to someone else's children, it's best to keep a distance. In Zhejiang, China, a pet owner shared an experience from last year where their dog had just given birth to three puppies. A mother cat living under the same roof, seemingly envious, kept taking the puppies to her side, regardless of the dog mother's feelings.
A video showed the yellow dog mother initially caring for her puppies. When she heard the door open, she stood up to greet the returning owner, temporarily leaving the puppies on a cushion. Meanwhile, a blue cat from a nearby cat bed sneaked out and seized the opportunity to snatch one of the puppies, taking it back to her own bed. The dog mother returned to check on her babies, sniffed around, and looked at the cat's residence, seemingly sensing something was off. However, she didn't retrieve her puppy from the cat; instead, she tightly hugged the remaining two puppies, as if guarding them more carefully.
When the dog mother heard her owner return and temporarily left, the cat took advantage of the moment to steal another puppy. Netizens who saw the cat's actions were amused, leaving comments like "cat thief," "cat: my dog son is so cute," "cat: I just needed a pillow," and "maybe she thought it was a mouse." From the original poster's social media page, it was discovered that the puppies grew up to be very close to the cat that used to steal them. Notably, the cat, which had been eager to be a mother, eventually had her own kittens and no longer needed to bother with someone else's children.
The pet owner shared that the dog babies grew up to be very affectionate with the cat that used to take care of them. The cat's maternal instincts were finally fulfilled when she had her own kittens, ending her need to "steal" someone else's puppies.
